Review by Cris Cain

The album, The World Of Guitar, by Narciso Yepes, is a true masterpiece of classical guitar music. The album features a collection of some of the most beautiful and intricate pieces of music for the classical guitar, performed with stunning precision and passion by Yepes himself.

From the opening track, the listener is immediately captivated by the delicate and intricate fingerwork of Yepes, who effortlessly weaves together the complex melodies and harmonies of each piece. Throughout the album, Yepes showcases his virtuosity and skill, effortlessly navigating through the intricate chord progressions and technical passages of each composition.

What sets this album apart, however, is not just the technical mastery of Yepes, but also the emotional depth and beauty that he brings to each piece. Whether it's the hauntingly beautiful "Recuerdos de la Alhambra" or the joyful exuberance of "Malagueña," Yepes infuses each piece with a sense of passion and feeling that is truly awe-inspiring.

Summary by Cris Cain

The World Of Guitar is a must-have album for anyone who loves classical guitar music. With its stunning performances and beautiful melodies, it is a true masterpiece that will stand the test of time.

Comments

The presto articulation is not fluently played. Overal I don't like the liberties he takes when it comes to rhythm in the prelude. The phrasing is not musical. When one listens to Jason Vieaux, John Williams or Goran Sollcher to name a few, one can hear much more fluent and musical renditions.
Grandioso Yepes
There is an audio-visually restored version of this, with HD video and without the unrealistically tinny (distorted) sound, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8Pskkgss5I
this is a genius mind
????
Perfection!
La puesta en escena, la maestría de Yepes, lo bonito de la canción... Este video es una obra de arte
No sabía que después del preludio seguía el bourree
He was great. One of my favorite performers and a great role model!

More about his life can be found here: https://www.blog.der-leiermann.com/en/narciso-garcia-yepes/
He was one of the original group of players who brought the classical guitar back into fashion during the mid 20th century. At the time, there were very few players in general and even fewer who could play at a reasonably competent level, you sorta also needed to be able to hire someone else if you could not get first choice-Andres Segovia , lol. Yepes playing needs to be appreciated in that context, basically a pioneer during a different time. To answer your question no-by today's standards this level of playing would not come close to earning one a career as a concert guitarist . Hardly an acceptable level of skill for today's stage but keep in mind he helped lay the foundation, giving the modern guitarist a reference point to improve upon. We can visit any good university today and easily see this level of playing and beyond......we wouldn't see that without the ground work of players like Yepes.
Браво!
never reached....
Juan Sebastian Bach.
I think you could land a 747 on that fretboard.
Yepes was a great guitar player but alas for me this is like a sacrilege of the original composition. Too slow, too much staccato, absolute minimum of baroque ornamentation, lack of precision, etc. This is not how I understand it should be played. This was composed for hapiscord and later transcribed for lute and guitar and that should be taken in account with all rich baroque ornamentation. How Bach should be played listen to Goran Sollscher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCyADImVDXU.
Also very unique a bit more emotional interpretation Julian Bream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4K0mY2cmLBY
The right-hand work is so clear, precise, and considered. A genuine master at work.
I think the prelude was too staccato and mechanical. I suggest checking out Göran Söllscher's renditon of this suite.

All the guitar masters I've heard are part of essential listening, generally without unnecessary comment, but they are all vitally important to consider the whole possibility of achievement on this instrument. Yepes is so fine an interpreter and disciple that no fault should be found or expressed; our loving gratitude is all and is enough. Beauty.
Yepes said that one should not play the guitar without counting with Segovia. This means that one shouldn't play the guitar without having in my what Segovia achieved. Obviously he wouldn't say the same about himself, but i would also say that one should not play the guitar without counting with Yepes neither. These two masters together represent what the guitar is ALL about.
The guitar 10 strings only is appropiate for playing the pieces written for laud (Bach, Dowland) and fews written for guitar (Sor, Aguado).
This is beautiful. But does it djent tho? I like that he's using a 10 string guitar, but I wanted to see more 0000000 on the lowest string
he's getting that straight out of the bridge area all night ohh yeah
Bravo !
He is one of the great guitar players. For me he is someone who plays all his notes correct and clear that is for me still a learning process. . His level is way high, my is compared with him like a baby.
